The Cama Beach Quilters (CBQ) began making quilts for the Cama Beach State Park cabins. The Cama Quilters used patterns that resembled those designed over a century ago for the Cama Beach Resort. By the time Cama reopened as a state park, the stock of quilts had grown large enough to furnish all the cabin beds and even included a backup supply so the primary quilts can be laundered regularly. These days the Cama Quilters have expanded their talents to creating quilted tote bags, table runners, wall hangings, pillows and more. Their items can be found at the Cama Beach Foundation Store, at the Welcome Center, and at the new Cama Center. They meet twice a month at the park and welcome visiting people who are interested in quilting. On the last Saturday in July the Cama Quilters host "Quilts on the Beach" at Cama Beach State Park. It's an open-air quilt show where their many quilts are display on the rustic cabins. For several years the quilters have donated a special raffle quilt for Cama Beach Foundation to help CBF raise money for our educational programs.

Down 2 Earth Gardeners

Down 2 Earth Gardeners is a group of volunteers at Cama Beach State Park dedicated to restoring and planting many of the historical plants that were found at this location when it was a resort in the 1950's. Come rain or shine these people are continuously caring for the poppies, red-hot pokers, nasturtiums, and natural wild flowers that reside here; they collect seeds and offer little packets to inquirers whenever possible. Recently they have provided wonderful gardening hints to perpetuate these historical species. They look forward to visitors questions about the native plants of the area. Chat with them when you see them tending plants at Cama. They love to talk about plants.
